³ We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,

⁴ Nigbati awa gburó igbagbọ́ nyin ninu Kristi Jesu, ati ifẹ ti ẹnyin ni si gbogbo awọn enia mimọ́,

⁴ Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints,

⁵ Nitori ireti ti a gbé kalẹ fun nyin li ọrun, nipa eyiti ẹnyin ti gbọ́ ṣaju ninu ọ̀rọ otitọ ti ihinrere,

⁵ For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;

⁶ Eyiti o de ọdọ nyin, ani bi o ti nso eso pẹlu ni gbogbo aiye ti o si npọ si i, bi o ti nṣe ninu nyin pẹlu, lati ọjọ ti ẹnyin ti gbọ́, ti ẹnyin si ti mọ̀ ore-ọfẹ Ọlọrun li otitọ:

⁶ Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:

⁷ Ani bi ẹnyin ti kọ́ lọdọ Epafra iranṣẹ ẹlẹgbẹ wa olufẹ, ẹniti iṣe olõtọ iranṣẹ Kristi nipo wa,

⁷ As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;

⁸ Ti o si ròhin ifẹ nyin ninu Ẹmí fun wa pẹlu.

⁸ Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.

⁹ Nitori eyi, lati ọjọ ti awa ti gbọ, awa pẹlu kò simi lati mã gbadura ati lati mã bẹ̀bẹ fun nyin pe ki ẹnyin ki o le kún fun ìmọ ifẹ rẹ̀ ninu ọgbọ́n ati imoye gbogbo ti iṣe ti Ẹmí;

⁹ For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

¹⁰ Ki ẹ le mã rìn ni yiyẹ niti Oluwa si ìwu gbogbo, ki ẹ ma so eso ninu iṣẹ rere gbogbo, ki ẹ si mã pọ si i ninu ìmọ Ọlọrun;

¹⁰ That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

¹¹ Ki a fi ipá gbogbo sọ nyin di alagbara, gẹgẹ bi agbara ogo rẹ̀, sinu suru ati ipamọra gbogbo pẹlu ayọ̀;

¹¹ Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;

¹² Ki a mã dupẹ lọwọ Baba, ẹniti o mu wa yẹ lati jẹ alabapin ninu ogún awọn enia mimọ́ ninu imọlẹ:

¹² Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

¹³ Ẹniti o ti gbà wa kuro lọwọ agbara òkunkun, ti o si ṣi wa nipo sinu ijọba ayanfẹ ọmọ rẹ̀:

¹³ Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

¹⁴ Ninu ẹniti awa ni idande nipa ẹ̀jẹ rẹ̀, ani idariji ẹ̀ṣẹ:

¹⁴ In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

¹⁵ Ẹniti iṣe aworan Ọlọrun ti a kò ri, akọbi gbogbo ẹda:

¹⁵ Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:

¹⁶ Nitori ninu rẹ̀ li a ti dá ohun gbogbo, ohun ti mbẹ li ọrun, ati ohun ti mbẹ li aiye, eyiti a ri, ati eyiti a kò ri, nwọn iba ṣe itẹ́, tabi oye, tabi ijọba, tabi ọla: nipasẹ rẹ̀ li a ti dá ohun gbogbo, ati fun u:

¹⁶ For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

¹⁷ On si wà ṣaju ohun gbogbo, ati ninu rẹ̀ li ohun gbogbo duro ṣọkan.

¹⁷ And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

¹⁸ On si jẹ ori fun ara, eyini ni ìjọ: ẹniti iṣe ipilẹṣẹ, akọbi lati inu okú wá; pe, ninu ohun gbogbo ki on ki o le ni ipò ti o ga julọ.

¹⁸ And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

¹⁹ Nitori didun inu Baba ni pe ki ẹkún gbogbo le mã gbé inu rẹ̀;

¹⁹ For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;

²⁰ Ati nipasẹ rẹ̀ lati bá ohun gbogbo lajà, lẹhin ti o ti fi ẹjẹ agbelebu rẹ̀ pari ija; mo ni, nipasẹ rẹ̀, nwọn iba ṣe ohun ti mbẹ li aiye, tabi ohun ti mbẹ li ọrun.

²⁰ And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

²¹ Ati ẹnyin ti o ti jẹ alejò ati ọtá rí li ọkàn nyin ni iṣẹ buburu nyin, ẹnyin li o si ti bá laja nisisiyi,

²¹ And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled

²² Ninu ara rẹ̀ nipa ikú, lati mu nyin wá iwaju rẹ̀ ni mimọ́ ati ailabawọn ati ainibawi;

²² In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:

²³ Bi ẹnyin ba duro ninu igbagbọ́, ti ẹ fẹsẹmulẹ ti ẹ si duro ṣinṣin, ti ẹ kò si yẹsẹ kuro ninu ireti ihinrere ti ẹnyin ti gbọ́, eyiti a si ti wasu rẹ̀ ninu gbogbo ẹda ti mbẹ labẹ ọrun, eyiti a fi emi Paulu ṣe iranṣẹ fun.

²³ If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;

²⁴ Nisisiyi emi nyọ̀ ninu ìya mi nitori nyin, emi si nmu ipọnju Kristi ti o kù lẹhin kún li ara mi, nitori ara rẹ̀, ti iṣe ìjọ:

²⁴ Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:

²⁵ Eyiti a fi emi ṣe iranṣẹ fun, gẹgẹ bi iṣẹ iriju Ọlọrun ti a fifun mi fun nyin lati mu ọ̀rọ Ọlọrun ṣẹ;

²⁵ Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;

²⁶ Ani ohun ijinlẹ ti o ti farasin lati aiyeraiye ati lati irandiran, ṣugbọn ti a ti fihàn nisisiyi fun awọn enia mimọ́ rẹ̀:

²⁶ Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:

²⁷ Awọn ẹniti Ọlọrun fẹ lati fi ọrọ̀ ohun ijinlẹ yi larin awọn Keferi hàn fun, ti iṣe Kristi ninu nyin, ireti ogo:

²⁷ To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

²⁸ Ẹniti awa nwasu rẹ̀ ti a nkìlọ fun olukuluku enia, ti a si nkọ́ olukuluku enia ninu ọgbọ́n gbogbo; ki a le mu olukuluku enia wá ni ìwa pipé ninu Kristi Jesu:

²⁸ Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

²⁹ Eyiti emi nṣe lãlã ti mo si njijakadi fun pẹlu, gẹgẹ bi iṣẹ agbara rẹ̀, ti nfi agbara ṣiṣẹ gidigidi ninu mi.

²⁹ Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
